Now it’s time for the game that should be the best one on TV this week.

Game of the Week:

The two best teams in the NFC are about to collide in the Big Easy. The New York Giants and the New Orleans Saints are both undefeated, and that will change after this sure to be instant classic. QB Eli Manning returns to his hometown for the first time as a Giant. He and Saints QB Drew Brees are two of the best quarterbacks in the league right now; they both face defenses in the top 10. The Saints are favored to win, but you can’t count the Giants out. They thrive in the “underdog” title. This will be a smash mouth physical game, and the Giants are known for that.

Prediction: Giants 31-27
